Why should it matter if someone’s rich or poor

If their clothes are silky or if their clothes are torn

Outside the human mind reality is shown

We all live in this nation as one

For some, race means everything

And riches do too

But what’s not understood, can’t be explained and

Hatred over powers the unequalness in society

Unfairness puts anger in one’s head

Corruption is spread

The words between the lines aren’t read

They’re not fighting for war

They’re fighting for equality and respect

The opposing sides are torn between

The struggles they must face and

The burdens they must overcome

My dream is now a nightmare

No consideration for the bond we share

Fighting one another everyday

Hoping the pain will go away

What a difference we could make if we all work together

Promote healing and wholeness

To make this life better
